Everyone has something they’d abandon all principles for. I’d eat the bugs, retina-scan my CBDCs and implant the neuralink if it cured my tinnitus.

Due to inflation, Redford’s Indecent Proposal would cost him $2.1m today ($1m, 1993). Still a solid trade.

Just finished the latest Lex episode, vaguely surprised at how engaging and “human” Zuckerberg came across this time. Interesting listen.

I appreciate the sticker selection from bitcoin.rocks, but am really looking for a good supply of “Bitcoin Fixes This” stickers with which to counter the rash of “15 Minute City Ready” decorations recently applied to my city’s road signage. Any recommends?

Gem from the All-In podcast this week: “As of this month, the Federal Government is spending more on servicing the national debt than on national defence”

Long after the shark-jump, there’s generally an exponential peak of complete nonsense before the unwind begins. During the BP Deepwater Horizon spill there was an article from a Serious Outlet(tm) suggesting it would gush forever due to ongoing formation of new oil in the tapped field. During the recent vaxorama, there was a headline from another Serious Outlet(tm) suggesting that, in addition to preventing COVID, the shots also miraculously improved general health outcomes and cured unrelated conditions. Does anyone remember this / have it in their nonsense scrapbook from 21/22?

#[0]​ Congrats on closing the 88 Sats founder group! Enjoyed your latest podcast and was wondering if you were able to dig up any more about the full reserve credit union opening in BC?

There must be a German word for the state a house has to be in beyond which its owners are too embarrassed to get a cleaner.

We’ve always been polite with Google, even if it’s achingly dim, because we’d like our kids to treat all entities, biological or technological, with respect and empathy. Didn’t think we’d be here quite so soon.
